A Fraction of Fattoush

Mr. Bulat, Mr. Fink and Mr. Mousseau go to Taza for lunch they order a large fattoush, a large hummus and a basket of pita containing 8 pieces of bread.


Mr. B ate 2/8 of the hummus, ¼ of the fattoush and 3 pita’s.
Mr. Fink ate ⅙ of the hummus, 4/8 of the fattoush and ¼ of the pita’s.
Mr. Mousseau ate 4/12 of the hummus, 3 pita’s and 2/8 of the fattoush.


What fraction of each plate is left over to bring back to Mr. Quaglia?



Extension 1


The bill was $22.50 if mr. Bulat paid for 2/3 of the bill what would Mr. fink and Mr. Mousseau have to pay? split the bill equally what would each teacher have to pay.


Extension 2

Create your own fraction word problem that relates to you.
